DIR. McGLYNN.

We are not special admirer of
this gentleman's views and doctrines,
but we do admire his bold stand for
liberty of conscience and manly in
dependence. That penal punish
ishmcnt, known to Catholics as ex-
communication and to Protestants,
as being turned out of church, has
fallen harmlessly on this priest, and
we presume bis outlook for useful
ness and chance for heaven have not
been injured thereby. Those things
in ecclesiastical matters are assum-
the proportions of huge farce.
There is just about as much sense in
it, as there is in one man thinking he
cannot live in the great world, be-
cause another man lives in it, or, he
cannot do business in a town because
some other man is in business there.
A man who thinks and acts within
the law and without overt acts upon
the rights Of others, should have the
sustaining influences of even his OPP
ponents-for they too, enjoy the same
privilege, even in opposition. Bless
ed privilege of freedom When the
church strikes at that-it strikes at
the best attribute of God in man.
On the Dr's labor and land views, we
disagree-but that is our dear privi-
leOe.

COMMITTEE REPoRT. To the citi-
zens of Martinsburg, we hereby submit
the following statement of the funds
that came into our hands in defraying
the expenses of the 4th of July celebra-
ton, with the expenditure of the same.
Amount collected and deposited with
Treasurer, $650.00; Amount expended
S47l.69; Balance in Treasury, $l78.31.
At a late hour in preparing for the 4th
the committee felt that it would run
short of funds and appointed a commit
tee of three to wait on the Mayor and
City Council for contribution, which
was granted by them and one hundred
dollars were given. After settling all
bills, we found thai the money was not
needed and had not been expended. In
view Of the fact and the further fact
that the money came from the noble
| people of this city, the committee voted
to return the same to council of said
city, leaving balance of $7S 81 cts in
private contributions. In finding a
suitable place for this fund land one
which your committee felt would give
universal satisfaction they voted that
the same be given tn the "Martinsburg
Fire Department, it being an organi.
cation without compensation to its
mem ers and one which protects the
lives and property of all of our citizens
and which should receive the hearty
endorsement of all the people. 1t was
therefore voted that the balance of $7S.
81 cts, be paid them. The committee
warmly thank the people of Berkeley
county for their hearty support and
earnest assistance in helping To make
the 4th Of July the greatest day in their
city's history also return their sincere
thanks to the Mayor and City Council
| for their liberal donation and for
furnishing the committee with $3.50
pounds of ice, for the benefit and COM
fort of our visitors and citizens. We
| tender vote of thanks to the ladies
who so kindly assisted in soliciting and
at the dinner, without which that de-
| gree of success which we now enjoy,
would have been greatly diminished.
Respectfully Submitted,
Stuart w. Walker,
John f. Roberts, Chairman.
Secretary.

Other Peoples Thoughts

The mpner Of saying or doing
anything goes great way towards
the value of the thing itself.-Sene-
ca.
If you want knowledge, you must
toll for it; if food, you must toll for
it; and if pleasure, you must toll for
il. Toll is the law. Pleasure comes
through toll, and not by self-induI-
gence and Incidence. When one gets
to love work, his lot is happy one.
-Ruskin.
Remember now and always, that
life is no idle dream, but solemn
reality based upon eternity and en-
comprised by eternity. Find out
your task stand to it; the night
cometh when no man can work.

gathering or meeting, but having ac-
cepted an invitation TO attend, even
though you meet your worst enemy
there, the requirements of courtesy
and good breeding teach gentlemanly
bearing and forbearance of every in
dication of hostility or insult. 1t is
neutral ground for the time being,
and he who oyerrides the civility of
the occasion is not gentleman. We
do not believe that the Knights of
Labor did anything of the kind as
asserted in that paper and challenge
production Of the proof over the sig
natures THOSE engaged in so doing.
We were on the speakers stand and
did not observe any such misbeha-
vior and have conversed with men,
bers of the organization who assert
that no such act occurred. Our citi-
zens generally deny it, and visitors
must not judge our people upon any
such untrue report.

Elections this Fall.

We are to have few elections this
year. Both parties can rest for the
great struggle of 1888.
Maryland, Massachusetts, Ken.
lucky, Iowa, and Ohio will elect gov
errors next fall Legislatures are
to be chosen by these states, and also
Virginia, New York and New Jer-
sey. New York and Pennsylvania
will elect minor state officers.
The most exciting contest OF the
year, except in Virginia, will probably
be the prohibition elections in Tex
as and Tennessee. Oregon is also to
vote on this question, but the cam
paign in that state is mild compared
to that in either Texas or Tennes-
see.
Only three of the legislatures to
be chosen this year will have the
election of United States Senators.
These are the legislatures of Iowa,
Kentucky and Virginia.
The legislature Of Kentucky will
of course, be Democratic and elect a
Democrat to succeed Mr.. Beck.
That gentleman desires to be his own
successor, but there are several
strong aspirants for the senatorial
toga, and it may be that the "cannv
Scotchman" will be left at home.
Iowa will be strongly Republican,
and the successor to James f. Will
son is to be selected. Like Mr..
Beck, Mr.. Wilson will find a number
of strong men seeking to fill his place,
and, as he has aroused some strong
antagonisms, there may be a new SEN
ator from Iowa.
In Virginia there will be a fierce
battle. Four years ago, under the
skillful leadership Of James 5. Bar
bour, the Democrats succeeded in
wrestling Virginia from the Republi
cans. Mr. Barbour's desire to come
to the Senate was well known, and it
was practically agreed that, in the
event of winning, this desire should
be gratitied. But when the legisla-
ture met, John NJ. Daniel whom Mr..
Barbour had elected to the House,
entered the race and was elected to
the Senate.
The outrageous mismanagement of
public affairs, both by the governor
and the legislature has Disguised the
people of Virginia to such an extent
that last year in the congressional
elections, the Republicans carried
the state by maiorities aggregating
over twenty thousand. The misera-
BILE failures made since that time to
settle the debt question have added
to and intensified the dissatisfaction
alarming the Democrats to such an
extent that they have once more
called on the man they betrayed and
deceived to try and save them.
Notwithstanding the fact that a
number of senatorial districts arr

,SHARP SENTENCED

Judge Barrett sentenced Jacob
Sharp on Thursday last to four years
in the penitentiary and a fine of five
thousand dollars. The remarks of
the Judge were fearfully scathing,
every word was equal to the stab of a
knife in the heart. He said:
"He had never performed so deli
cate task in his whole professional
career. The defendant here, in ask
ing for mercy, can give nothing as q
plea for ciemency but age and sick
ness. On the merits of the case he
certainly is entitled tp none. 1t is
absurd to state that he was not gull
ty of giving the brides, as he was un-
mistakably the leader of the whole
affair. He alluded to the defendant
as securing a million dollars of prof
it as sheer larceny, for which he
could have been indicted just as well
as for bribery. What is there to ex-
cite pity or mercy except the age and
i'll health Of the prisoner, and the
mourning condition of his family !?
With over 81 100000 in his pockets
he clamors for mercy without offer
ing to pay back a penny of the mon
ey stolen, so that should he die in
prison his family has a vast fortune
to fall back upon
